Maintenance of the query statistic data collection

(1)

…accessible from the Data Warehousing Workbench Tools

or using transaction RSDDSTAT

For Queries, InfoProviders,

Web Templates, Workbooks

Switch Statistics data

collection on or off

Set the statistic detail level

‚0„ = Aggregated data only

‚1„ = No detail on data manager

‚2„ = Detail on all levels

© SAP 2010 /


(2)

Default settings for statistic data collection

For newly created queries: InfoProvider default

All new queries of this InfoProvider will inherit the setting

If no InfoProvider setting exists: custom system default for all queries

Extras Change Default or

Change entry „Default Value“ in list

If no (custom) system default exists: (Delivered) System Default:

D = „X‟ = On,

Statistic Detail level: D = „1‟ (Only Front End/Calculation Layer Data)

Statistic Data Management

Please review the (delivered) system default and disable statistic data collection where performance monitoring is not necessary

Example: InfoProviders with low data volume

Setting Statistic Detail Level „2‟ for all queries will result in large amounts of data in statistic data collection tables (rule of thumb: ~ 30 - 40 records per query navigation step)

Frequent transfer to Technical Content InfoProviders recommended

Frequent deletion of Statistics Data (in transaction RSDDSTAT) recommended

© SAP 2010 /


(3)

Statistics Detail Level setting

„0‟ - Aggregated Data: System writes only one OLAP event (event 99999) for the query.

Contains the contains the cumulative times within the OLAP processing of the query.

System does not record data from the aggregation layer of the analytic engine or aggregation information.

„1 - Only Front End/Calculation Layer Data:

System records all OLAP events, but does not separate data from the aggregation layer of the analytic engine.

System writes only the general data manager event 9000 in the OLAP context as well as the aggregation information.

„2‟ - All: The system records all data from the area for front end and calculation layer

Also, records data from the area for the aggregation layer and aggregation information.

„9‟ - No Data: The system does not record any data from the front end and calculation layer or from the aggregated event 99999.

But it does record data for the BEx Web templates and workbooks, depending on the setting.

Deletion of Query Runtime Statistics

Estimated data volume in query runtime statistics

Depending on the detail statistics level 30 – 80 records may be written per navigation step to the BI Statistics Tables (for those InfoProviders and Queries where statistics data collection is turned on)

Example: 500 Users / day with each 6 navigation steps in average = 500 x 6 x 30 = 90.000 records / day in BI Statistics Tables

1. Manual deletion of statistics data

In transaction RSDDSTAT. Dates to be deleted are selected.

Using program RSDDSTAT_DATA_DELETE (for query runtime statistics only in 7.0x, in

addition for data warehouse management statistics with BW 7.30)

2. Automatic deletion during data load

Per default, with a delta load for query runtime statistics, data of the last 30 days is

deleted out of the BI Query Runtime Statistics Tables where the corresponding Query

Runtime DataSource extracts from. This time frame can be customized using the

TCT_KEEP_OLAP_DM_DATA_N_DAYS parameter in the RSADMIN table.

Please see following SAP Notes for more information

Migration mandatory

3.x InfoCube 0BWTC_C02 will not receive any new data as source table RSDDSTAT is not used for statistics data collection anymore

Please note that data in the obsolete table RSDDSTAT can get deleted through the reports RSDDK_STA_DEL_DATA and RSDDK_STA_DEL_DATA_TO_DATE

No migration: Technical content 3.x still valid

With SAP NetWeaver 7.0, table RSDDSTATAGGRDEF has been enhanced. The technical content 3.x is currently not reflecting this update but can still be used.

Query runtime statistics extraction

Improvements in SAP NetWeaver 7.00 SP19

Motivation and Scope

The query runtime statistics in the BW System (view RSDDSTAT_OLAP) contains more

information than needed for query runtime performance analysis in Technical Content

Through improvements in the Technical Content extraction (DataSources 0TCT_DS01 and

0TCT_DSA1) only data relevant for query runtime performance analysis will get extracted

Relevant data in this context includes all navigation steps recorded in the BI Statistics which

are directly attached to a navigation step in the BW Analytic Engine (OLAP).

Aim: only statistics data linked to real user interaction and navigation gets transferred to

TCT InfoProviders.

Hence, focusing on relevant data allows to decrease the data volume in Technical Content

InfoProviders (performance) while at the same time easing analysis on query runtimes

Availability and Information

Please find more detailed information in the SAP Notes 1237091 and 1250182

Availability of this improvement with SAP NetWeaver BW 7.00 SPS 17 (SP19)

Customizing on step category Table RSTCTEXTRACT

1 .In Query Runtime Statistics many entries appear containing “RSDRI” in the object name. This is the result of BW internal read operations on InfoProviders through the “Data Manager” Interface. These are typically not directly related to end user query execution and often carry high runtimes.

2 . These BI statistic records get assigned to step category „EXTN‟ which per default gets not transferred to Technical Content InfoProviders.

Query runtime statistics - BW Accelerator

Counter for read accesses

■ In systems that are linked to an SAP NetWeaver BW Accelerator (BWA) server, statistics are generated for

each InfoCube to see whether the query reads the data from the BWA or not. In addition, the reasons why the

query may not read from the BWA are listed. The data is written to the database table RSDDSTATBIAUSE.

■ This statistics data cannot and should not be a detailed runtime analysis of a query or a BI system. The

query runtime statistics can be used for this. These new statistics enable you to investigate the BWA usage

quickly and easily.

■ Currently, there is no Technical Content available for this statistics data. Analysis is done on table

RSDDSTATBIAUSE itself. For more details please refer to SAP Note 1159260.

© SAP 2010 / 10

Table Field Description

INFOPROV Name of the InfoCube from which the data is read

CALDAY Calendar day. One entry is generated and counted for each InfoCube, each day.

BIA_USED Counter, the BIA index of the InfoCube is used

BIA_TECHINA Counter, the BIA index of the InfoCube is active and filled, however it currently has the status "Inactive“ (cannot be used for

queries) since certain data loading processes are running (for example, change run, delete request, and so on).

BIA_INA Counter, the BIA index is active and filled, however it is manually set to the status "Inactive" or the user is prevented

from using the BIA by the system parameters.

DB_FALLBACK Counter, the BIA index is active and filled, however, currently the DB fallback is active and all queries read from the database.

BIA_NOTPOSSIBLE Counter, this query cannot read from the BIA data. This may be a manual change in the query properties, the selection in the

debug options in RSRT, reading from an open request in the InfoCube, reading with the characteristics

RequestID, ChangeID or RecordTP in the drilldown or in the Filter.

NO_BIA Counter, there is (currently) no BIA index for this InfoCube.

Best practice implementation of different counters

Number of (distinct) users

Implemented in query as key figure with exception aggregation on user or

alternatively with DataStore Object using key figures with update mode ‚overwrite„.

The same logic would apply to „number of distinct queries“ (using the BI Application

Object = Query) in the exception aggregation.

Number of user sessions

Implemented with DataStore Object (Session UID in key).

Implementation in query as key figure with exception aggregation on „Session UID“

might be critical in terms of performance.

Number of BI Application executions

Total number (COUNT): Implemented with queries using key figure 0TCTWTCOUN

out of InfoProvider 0TCT_MC01.

Total number of different BI Application executions (COUNT DISTINCT): This can be

implemented in a query as key figure with exception aggregation on „BI Application“

(to be tested on performance) or alternatively with a DataStore Object.

© SAP 2010 /


Best practice implementation of different counters

Number of (initial) query executions (= BI Application Object)

An „Initialization / Navigation Flag“ (0TCTINITFL) is available in InfoProvider

0TCT_CA1 since BW 7.00 SP16.

The first call of a given query in a user session is marked with 0TCTINITFL = „ „. All

subsequent call in the same user session (= navigation) will have 0TCTINITFL = „X„.

Number of query navigation steps (= BI Application Object)

Total number (COUNT): Implemented with key figure 0TCTQUCOUN available in

InfoProvider 0TCT_MC01 and 0TCT_CA1.

Total number of different query executions (COUNT DISTINCT): This can be

implemented in a query as key figure with exception aggregation on „BI Application

Object“ (to be tested on performance) or alternatively with a DataStore Object.

Number of usages of a characteristic in queries (1)

This analysis can be undertaken based on InfoCube 0BWTC_C03 from the 3.x

Technical Content (underlying table RSDDSTATAGGRDEF).

Please find additional information on this scenario on the next page


Number of usages of characteristics in queries

© SAP 2010 /

Number of usages of a characteristic in queries (2)

However this InfoCube does not contain information on the Query name or the

InfoProvider in case the Query is built on a MultiProvider. If this is required, please

consider a customer extraction (join through STEPUID) on views / tables

RSDDSTATAGGRDEF, RSDDSTAT_DM and RSDDSTAT_OLAP.

Also, this Table and InfoProvider miss details on the characteristic values used. This is

planned for future releases.

RSDDSTATAGGRDEF and 0BWTC_C03 only receive data if query statistics detail level

is ‚2„ and if corresponding InfoProvider is not indexed through the BW Accelerator. More

information on this can be found in SAP Note 1094100 “NetWeaver BW Accelerator:

Continuous improvements”.

If you require RSDDSTATAGGRDEF also in case the query uses the BW Accelerator

please implement SAP Note 1155135 “Data from RSDDSTATAGGRDEF recorded even

if you use the BIA”.

Query Runtimes Statistics

Monitoring DBSEL and DBTRANS

0TCTNDBSEL: Selected records (from DB or BI Accelerator)

0TCTNDBTRA: Transferred records (from DB or BI Accelerator)

These two key figures indicate the aggregation (factor) that took place before data was

handed over to the Analytical Engine. This is important for improving the performance of your

aggregates and your data modeling in general

0TCTNDBSEL / 0TCTNDBTRA should be monitored using InfoProvider 0TCT_MC03

Prerequisite: statistics detail level for query is set to ‚2„ in statistics customizing)

0TCTNDBSEL / 0TCTNDBTRA in 0TCT_MC01 are only meaningful if query data was

selected out of one InfoProvider only. In case of „PartProvider“ queries within a MultiProvider,

data will be aggregated (results not meaningful). Example:
